The theme of our tour to India centers on the golden age of architecture of the Mughal Empire in Agra India. The Mughal Empire was founded in 1526 by Babur, a descendant of Mongol warlords. It was the most powerful Islamic state to rule in India, most prosperously during the 17th century. Under Mughal emperors, roads were built, trade prospered, and the arts flourished. The Mughals governed northern India, and over time, their rule extended from Afghanistan in the west to Bengal in the east.…

architectural qualities, proving that styles are not merely frozen in time. “In itself it was no more than a small, enclosed world…yet its shadow reached out to the most distant corners of the continent, and even beyond.” It is a beautiful thing when architecture can pull of such an amazing…

“In the design of the building itself it is often difficult to draw a line between practical necessity and deliberate intention, since Iktinos seems subtly to have exploited the former in the latter.” This quote about the Greek Parthenon, taken from Pollitt’s work on ancient Greek art and separated from its context, could almost be applied to a description of a much later, almost millennia later, Notre-Dame de Reims Cathedral. While separated both by time and location, each ‘temple’ was created…

Religion has been tied to art long before our society even had a word for it. Since ancient times art has been used to promote the ideas and beliefs of many different religions to the world. Pictures of half human half animal beings paint the walls of Paleolithic caves the Egyptians hieroglyphics and statues depict their gods and the Greeks built temples and reliefs to worship and tell the stories of their gods the medieval ages were no different. The middle ages brought the rise of the…

Smartphones running on Android tend to have larger RAMs than iPhones because the Android OS can expand to make use of more RAM. Another reason for larger RAM size is due to Android apps which are written in Java and require memory recycling- a process that iOS does not need to use (Mathur, 2016). Memory recycling occurs when a user switches between apps running in the phone’s background. Every time a user switches to a different app, the OS has to “flush and refill” the recently opened…

Technology has been rapidly developing in the past decades. Compared to half a decade ago, technology has grown at a faster rate. Humans use technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to make tasks easier and aid humans; but, can artificial intelligence do more than aid humans? Can humans use artificial intelligence for something less mechanical and more organic, such as visual arts? Yes, at the rate technology is advancing, artificial intelligence will be able to create fine arts as skillfully…

Evolution of French Architecture During the Gothic Period My favorite aspect of art is usually the architecture because it shows the peaks of human capability on a grander scale. I liked learning about the architecture during the Gothic period the most because it seemed so ambitious, and even though they were built centuries ago, people still marvel at their intricate designs, near unsustainable heights and brilliant use of natural lighting. The new gothic era of reaching new structural heights…

Compared with normal two-tier client-server architecture, the three-tier client-server architecture has the following two important advantages: Better transparency. The servers within the application tier of the three-tier architecture allow an application to detach user interface from back-end resources and therefore provide better location and migration transparency. That is, the location…

in 1939. It was a mural designed to represent the three cultures of the southwest. In the first mural we see a Native American contribution such as making baskets, pottery and weaving. The Chicanos contribution is shown through agriculture and architecture. The Anglos are shown as the scientific contributors and the third shows the union of all three, with the men shaking hands. In text the images are not given justice. In visually breaking down these images there is so much tension and angst…
